Because the book was good - and the changes the movie made seem to exist because "Well - we need to make changes". Like - my favourite part of the book (the Envoy Corps and the weirdness around what they are) and Quellcrist and her weird "Karl Marx via 19 year old punk" and all the pieces - they just rolled it into "We need to say terrorists".about 4 days agopermalink

@boneidol I mean - the book definitely had some of that... It fell into violence in the middle - and there was a lot of sex. But on the modernist noir skeleton fell a fairly good scifi bookabout 4 days agopermalink

@zoowar thanks! thats super useful in showing why I don't understand it good enough, and a little knowledge can be dangerous. Of course the type signature of sort is not general enough, with it's restriction to Ordered types. How about a working proper example, using reverse .. so
g f l = map f $ reverse l
h f l = reverse $ map f l
